GDT: Game 30: New York Rangers @ The Blue Notes, 6pm ET , MSG

[KirkAlbuquerque]

These are the games and seasons that separate the real fans from the fairweather ones. I will be watching and reminding myself that sitting through these dog shit seasons are what makes the good ones more worthwhile. It's either that or admitting I'm a glutton for punishment.

I’ll watch but only because it’s love commenting on this board

So if they are doing a.....

Work-to-rule, also known as an Italian strike or a slowdown in United States usage, called in Italian a sciopero bianco meaning "white strike",[1] is a job action in which employees do no more than the minimum required by the rules of their contract or job,[2][3] and strictly follow time-consuming rules normally not enforced.[4] This may cause a slowdown or decrease in productivity.

In order to get back at Drury it puts Lavy in a tough spot. Anyone suspected of an Italian Strike should be benched and any action allowable by the CBA must be used.

 

[Ratelleitlikeitis]

The Blues versus the Browns.

If it was at MSG it would be The Blues versus The Boos.

Huh, there's another game today. How about that.

I'm already disappointed

I literally told everybody back near Thanksgiving that there was a war brewing between the players and the management and people dismissed me. I did not share that with all of you from some made up place...

I half expect Kreider and Zib to just lean all the way in and stay stationary from the second the puck is dropped until the end of the game.

No more of this 'quiet quitting' p***yfooting around. I want signs and chanting if we have to watch a player's strike game after game

It's good that nyr pr has moved away from the whole no quit in New York

 

[cheech70]

Stan chiming in....he is mad because he always picks the NYR to win the cup...calling Lavy negative..Wow ...look like crap and be happy

Realistically Stan's family needs to deactivate his Twitter account because at this point he's just tarnishing his own "legacy"

 

[zlev]

fischler finally with a good take

 

[CLW]

fischler finally with a good take

Drury has no stomach, no balls, no brains, no heart. Quite the pickle really.

 

[17futurecap]

Stan definitely sold his account to the highest bidder, I can’t imagine he’s firing off these thoughts.

 

[TheGortonConspiracy]

agree with Stan
pretty wild how bad the team has been in the last 12 or so
everyone is checked out need to make multiple moves

 

[Charlie Conway]

They probably act more professional.


If we trade him now and retain, does that retention apply only to his current contract? Or the extension as well?

Can't say with 100% certainty, but I'd assume it's only the current contract since I believe his new contract isn't in effect until whenever the first one expires...assuming July 1st.

Same reason he'd only have that 10 team trade list in effect at the moment.

In corporate Australia it's called "Quiet Quitting" (wife is in HR).

This is what I've gotten from the core group for a while now. And it makes the gams very, very difficult to stomach

 

[hardnosed]

Something caused these players to dial it down. Was it the Goodrow thing? The Trouba thing? If either of those, how did you fix it by benching another core guy? That won't work. Fire the coach? Then the players win. Just pointing this out. I have no answers. I do know that once the players turn down their motors, its tough to rev up. Its not as simple as flipping a switch.

 

[Mike in Houston]

No Panarin. No Mancini.

Vesey still can't crack the lineup.

GM gets canned, he gets a new coaching staff, they move kreider and Mika if possible because those are the "leaders" who seem to fold every time there's adversity in the room, move lindgren and smith. Retool on the fly, call up Othmann, maybe Sykora.

 

[Cmox]

So this is the big decision on the line up?

 

[Mike in Houston]

No Panarin. No Mancini.

Vesey still can't crack the lineup.

Vesey is out there. Kakko isn't.

 

[17futurecap]

Mackey, Chad, Brod and Vesey all in, oh joy.

 

[Cmox]

Vesey is out there. Kakko isn't.

So Kakko and Mancini to send a message?

Yea, simply firing the coach does squat. Firing Drury should at least tell everybody that ownership is not happy.

 

[DialUp]

Trading Kakko?

 

[DuneGoon84]

Trading Kakko and Panarin?

Let the suck commence

 

[17futurecap]

Dying at the lines.

 

[WhereO Is Kakko]

Trading Kakko?

Interesting thought on Kakko. Wonder what he could bring in return - picks or a player now?
